You could find all of the files you need on
rpm.pbone but hey, if you "can't be arsed" to install a few shared libraries to be able to use one of the coolest tools for software management ....
I nevre had to install anything special to use apt-get but then again I never go with the default install and prefer to make a selection of the software I'm about to install.
This way I end up with exactly what I want and not what someone else has decided is best suited for desktop/workstation use.
When you go with the Red Hat default desktop install there's lots of stuff that doesn't get installed, this is probably why you don't have these libs.
But seriously, don't let this be a drawback, if you're an IT person you surely have encountered similar situations in a Windows environment, not with libs but with dll's.
Just install the libs and enjoy the magic!
